Through small tweaks and refinements, FIFA 21 plays as well as it has done in recent memory, but lacks the relatively big features that are usually used to justify a new version of an annually released game.
Earlier this week, EA released the early-access version of FIFA 22 and players on the Xbox Series S seem to be very disappointed with the game's graphics, complaining of scaling, and low quality.
I fully expect an influx of Series S on the second hand market once the Series X and PS5 are more readily available. The value proposition is way off by comparison, in my opinion.
I played the early access Series S FIFA 22 and have not found any issues. Some slight graphical concessions but very slight in my opinion. Series S is about making next gen accessible to more people who can't always afford 4 and 500 pounds for the X and PS5. I find my Series A to be perfect for my needs and great value for money. I don't think it will be become a second hand system that much because there is a huge market for lower cost consoles and always will be. I think the criticism of FIFA 22 on Series S in this article is over the top.
I got my pre order money back after trying fifa early access with EA play.
Its crap it doesn't even feel like your in control of the players.
Konami game is free this year. I wouldn't bother. The only mode I play in football games are ranked online matched with real teams anyway.
I’ve played a lot of games on FIFA this year and tested a lot fo players. Check out my list for The Last Word On Gaming's FIFA 21 TOTY!
The top download charts for July are here, and FIFA 21 has earned top honors on PS5 in both the US/Canada and EU regions.
This will be the first FIFA in 20 years that I don't buy. Shame really. Hope they really make 22 good with a version making the most from next-gen consoles, but FIFA21 just doesn't excite me at all.
Sounds like PES quality has finally surpassed Fifa
